That is not white interior. That is Code 908 "Sandalwood/Buckskin"interior. A very rarely ordered interior. Bet that car looked pretty sharp with the Code 75 exterior with the Sandalwood interior.
I had the last 1970 W31 F85 automatic with the same interior. Color/type was discontinued 71' model year, so that interior was a "one year only". Because of that I had to wait and extra 17 days for the vendor to build the pieces. My car was built May 5th. It had a lot of options and listed for $4,290. After I drove it for 3,000 miles ( I did that in two weeks ) I bought it through Labadie Olds in Bay City MI for $2,900 out the door! BTW: It was Sherwood Green with all windows tinted and really stood out with the chocolate dash, vinyl floor mat, lower dash kick panels, and rear package shelf Headliner, door/quarter panels, front and rear seats where Sandalwood. The reason it was called "Buckskin" was that the seat material looked like light tanned deer skin with a varied pattern simulating deer skin. Also, strange thing for being vinyl it had a very soft feel to the seat material!

re 70 f-85
What does this car look like to everybody through just seeing pics? Does it look like apiece of junk? Is it the price? Is it the three different colors ? Just asking opions of what everybody thinks the price is negotiable just k8nda want to see it go to good olds people to appreciate it even for its parts. Any input would be appreciated thanks.

If it were closer it would be a car I would go look at in person. Your pics show an overall condition. Buying a car from a far distance may require detailed pics to show rust and condition. The price seems fair but also factor in time and $$ to get it to someone out of state.
I got a few nibbles out of state on my 68 f85. It was rougher than yours. Someone of craigslist drove 3 hrs to buy it from me in person. Good luck with the sale. Hope this helps.
